About this listing

Luxury 2BR 2BA beach condo, located in the K section of Playa Guiones. It combines contemporary architecture, with all the the creature comforts of luxury accommodations; a "home away from home" just moments from the beach, for families or groups.

Namaste Oasis Private Residence Club & Vacation Resort is located in Nosara, Costa Rica within walking distance to the beaches of Playa Guiones. Nosara has been named a 2012 worldwide top destination by New York Times Travel, and repeatedly voted and selected as one of the best places to learn to surf in the world. Additionally, there are three main breaks for more advanced surfers, as well as many other surf spots and remote beaches within a quick drive or day trip. The town itself is an eclectic mix of American, European & Australian ex-pats living alongside the local Tico community.

The town boasts 20+ international cuisine restaurants, plenty of nightlife, medical clinics and a pharmacy, surf shops, boutique clothing stores, and more importantly receives swell and has surfable waves nearly every day of the year. It is one of the most consistent surf spots you can find, which makes planning a surf trip that much easier - whenever you are free to travel, there will be waves to surf in Nosara.

We're accessible from both of the two international airports in Costa Rica, Liberia International (LIR) and San Jose International (SJO).

Do not live on site, but have full time property manager, and also live in town, have my office near the property, if anyone needs some "quite" time to get some work done while on vacation, they can gladly come to my office and use the desks and internet connection (having said that, internet connection at the property is also top notch, just sometimes people are hard to motivate themselves to work because the property is so relaxing!!!)

The Neighborhood

K section of Playa Guiones is THE place to be. Primarily residential, so no loud bars, restaurants, or nightlife to disturb those on vacation. The beach is a 8-10 minute walk, Yoga institute is only 5 minutes away, and there is no through traffic, since it is a dead end road. Location has everything someone traveling to Nosara would want.

Getting Around

Not really any public transit. Roads are rough, bumpy dirt roads. Walking is easy enough, but do suggest to get a quad, golf cart, or car rental, as Nosara is a fairly big area and no matter how much is close, people always want to explore and you will probably want some form of motorized transportation. There are Cabs that can be used for 1 off experiences, such as zip-lining .

Other Things to Note

This property is truly unique to the Playa Guiones area, there are no other accommodations that have the high end finishings or design, that compare for the price. We have very high ratings on all of the internet rental sights, such as (website hidden) and (website hidden). This is really a great property and we guarantee your satisfaction.

These are private residences, and all guests are expect to act as if these are their own homes. Please do not bring towels to the beach. Each unit has private security system and alarm must be set when not in the unit. Please wash off all beach sand prior to using interior showers or the pool area.

We really enjoyed our time at Namaste Oasis. The accommodations were quiet and comfortable and exactly as pictures and described. Francinny was nice, responded promptly to any correspondence and met us upon checkin even though we arrived a couple hours early. Renting a car is not a must for this location but it definitely made it easier to explore around Nosara and the surrounding towns. You could walk to dinner and the market but a car or atv makes it much easier.

The pool was very nice on hot afternoons and the AC gave us a much appreciated break from the summer heat. It was a great experience and we will certainly be back again soon.

This place is great. Good location (but you probably need a quad/golf car to get around), lovely setting and the apartment is really modern and looks new. Bladimir, the caretaker, picked us up in Nosara when we arrived, which was a nice touch too. It's alarmed, full aircon and feels secure with a security guard.

Jeff's place is truly a gem. It's more beautiful and chic than in pictures and is a spot that any family or couple would enjoy. Take advantage of the property manager who will arrange transport, activities, and even buy you groceries in advance.

We were there for four days and found no need to have a car as long as you're happy to make the 30 min walk into town/10 minute walk to the beach.

One thing we were surprised by was the rather high cost of everything in town (except for cervezas). Expect to pay standard prices of any major North American city at restaurants, shops, etc.

Some advice:
- You must bring flashlights
- "Roads" are completely unmarked and the condo has no address, which means it's impossible to get a cab from town unless you can direct him all the way.
- When you arrive, ask to be walked down to the beach. It's very simple, but having to navigate in the pitch dark with no map, address, or orientation is next to impossible.
- Google maps is inaccurate so you must rely exclusively on your memory (read: easy on the cervezas) .

We felt very safe but were warned that there was considerable break-ins and thievery in the area.
